"I travel a lot for work, and I’m shocked by how little I’ve read despite the dozens of books in my bookcase. I’ve decided to take better advantage of all of my time on planes, and read at least one book every two weeks." —myrandaw

"I suffer from severe anxiety that gives me chest pain on a daily basis, but after deleting the social media apps off of my phone on New Year's Day, my anxiety has been considerably lower. I’ve barely even checked my accounts since, and so far I haven't missed it." —shannac4d5985331

"I used to eat a small breakfast, skip lunch, eat a sweet when I thought I was going to faint, feel guilty, and only pick at dinner. Now I eat three regular meals a day, which keeps my blood sugar stable, and I don’t beat myself up if I want a snack. The ritual of preparing and eating meals also helps me eat more mindfully." —study

"My goal for this year is to show myself more love. I’m taking a sewing class and piano lessons because I’ve always wanted to, and I'm spending two whole days a month, by myself, doing whatever the hell I want — trying a new coffee shop, hanging out at the beach, binging Netflix, etc." —Kat Pinning

"I'm practicing daily meditation (even if it just for five minutes) and yoga (even if it’s a quick sun salutation or some relaxing poses right before bed). It has definitely helped me with stress management." —e46b99dda3

"This year, I’ve decided to react less. I tend to let people get under my skin, and it does me no good to keep getting annoyed and upset. I want to stop worrying so much and learn to let the little things go." —SKipnees
